tl;dr How much dirt (rough %) can you remove just by hose vs Foam gun + hose vs foam cannon/pressure washer. NO contact.
i 100% understand that no contact washes are not a solution and that's not what I'm aiming for. I just like to have rough numbers to compare for the half ass washes I do between real washes.
I recently bought a foam gun and it worked how you'd expect. Except I hadn't washed the car in about 3 weeks through salt and mud due to a vancouver winter. It's raining for the next two weeks so I didn't feel the need to do a hand wash and just wanted some of the gunk off so I just used a foam gun/hose. I probably should've taken before and after pics but to the naked eye and on a black car, it seems like almost none got removed. I'm sure that's not the case, and the salt and caked on dirt aren't doing me any favors. so just want to compare the methods since I think I'm going to buy a foam cannon.
completely rough estimates are fine.
I'm guessing

- hose only: 5%
- foam gun and hose: 10%
- foam cannon and pressure washer: 25%
